Abstract

The solar-wind hybrid power system model is an existing senior project that will be upgraded the system based on the user’s option. This project’s concept aims for a secondary school student to make them understand the theory of renewable energy working fundamentals. The main target of this project is to develop a microcontroller-based prototype for a small scale solar-wind hybrid power system. The Arduino program is the main controller that control the solar photovoltaic (PV) and the wind system energy that can generate electricity to replace non-renewable energy. Additionally, this project also has an improvement which is to develop a monitoring system for electrical power, solar panel luminance and turbine blades rotation speed using MIT App Inventor that can control the output and can be monitored via smartphone. Futhermore, this project will also analyse the amount of electrical power that is generated by the solar-wind hybrid system prototype by taking into account its solar panel luminance and turbine blades rotation speed. This project consist of two part, software and hardware. The software part will be the main part for this project. At the end of this project, the hybrid solar photovoltaic (PV) and wind energy system that serve as an educational training tool are working properly with Arduino as a controller and MIT app inventor as the human machine interface (HMI). Hence, the students will be able to understand the concept of wind energy and solar phovoltaic (PV) energy as a renewable energy source.
